Drishti

Oct 07, 2008 12:27

my "yoga" realization of recent year has been to set drishti.. the attention you focus during the pose that makes the pose have energy, have purpose, instead of just standing there by accident (which is what most newbies must do)

living your life with your own drishti gives it strength and purpose and disallows the natural distractions (eg in yoga, struggling to hold a pose & stretch, reach, breathe..) that throw you off balance

in each moment our attention is somewhere.. but where? reminding ourselves to set drishti in any moment suddenly gives us power and access to freedom we lose whenever our path seems adrift..

perhaps that is the origin of adrift -- without drishti?

yoga, peace, life, drishti, awareness
